Join Our Speaker’s Bureau – Share Your Story
If you enjoy speaking to groups and organizations, consider becoming and MS speaker’s bureau volunteer. Volunteer speakers, most who have MS, are available to speak to community groups, schools, employers, police & fire departments, health care providers, and other interested organizations. Speeches given through the National MS Society’s Speakers’ Bureau should include information about:
- Personal experience or connection with MS
- Basic facts about MS
- Information about the work of the National MS Society
- How the audience can get involved in the fight against MS
Length of talks and specific topics requested vary depending on the organization. Other topics may include research, treatments and disease management, and volunteer opportunities.
As a speaker, you may also be asked to represent the National MS Society at health/community/employee fairs or special events, give presentations to teams, and speak at National MS Society fund raising events or ceremonies.
